Welcome to JM Extension Academy, where the goal is to revolutionize the hair extension industry by uniting stylists, improving skills, and changing the way people think and feel about hair extensions.

With over two decades of experience, I have seen the profound impact that safe, high-quality extensions can have—not just on clients but also on the careers of skilled stylists.

The demand for hair extensions is growing, and now is the time to harness this opportunity with proper education, scientifically backed techniques, and a supportive, expert-led training community.

Through JM Extension Academy, I’m working to bring stylists across Canada together, arming them with the skills, knowledge, and resources to deliver a truly transformative extension experience.

Why choose JM Extension Academy?

Specialize In Science-Based, Safe Techniques

I focus our training program on nano hair extensions—which are scientifically proven to be the safest on the market.

Unlike bulky weft and tape-in techniques that can stress hair follicles, nano extensions prioritize hair health. They’re gentle, versatile, and undetectable, offering clients a natural look with every wear.

Hands-On, Comprehensive Training

I believe in learning by doing, so each course includes extensive, hands-on practice, including working with live models.

My training doesn’t end with theory—I immerse my students in real-world scenarios to ensure they feel confident and prepared to serve clients immediately after certification.

Ongoing Mentorship & Business Support

Certification is just the beginning. I continue to support my graduates with guidance on growing a successful business, marketing, and technique refinement.

My commitment to student success means that you’ll receive more than just a certificate; you’ll be joining a community of professionals ready to support and collaborate as you grow.

  • So I’ve been to a lot of different programs and classes over the years, this means I’ve dealt with a lot of different teachers and professors but hands down Jody was the best teacher, mentor and instructor I’ve ever had. I was really nervous because it was the first time doing something major for myself since the lock downs, not to mention it was my first time doing hair extensions but she made me feel more than comfortable. I learned so much more than I anticipated and felt like I was in safe comfortable environment. She was easy to communicate with and over all just a great person. This was an awesome experience to get to learn and grow, I appreciate everything. I can’t wait to hopefully become a great extension artist in the near future. Thank you Jody for everything girl xo

  • Jody is by far the most effective instructor of any course I have ever taken. She has a knack for recognizing the learning style of her students and adapts her style on a dime. Jody helped me feel confident and skilled and continues to provide education even after finishing the modules. Her metaphors during teaching will stick with you. The entire experience has been empowering and exciting. I can’t say enough positive about this and I recommend this to anyone who wants a side job like myself

  • My training was more than awesome with my trainer Jody. I came out of it more knowledgeable in both the extension installation side of the business as well as how to market my business to prospective customers. This was an experience that I am extremely happy with. Jody is upbeat and takes her time teaching hands on. I believe this training is more than worth the money and I am excited to build my business off of it. Thank you Jody!
